If you mean "The Whole Enchilada" next to Frank and Burgy's, it didn't last long. Now it's a nail salon.

To the person asking about Frank and Burgy's, it's one of the best places I've been in Herkimer, whether it's their hand formed burgers, Hofmann hot dogs, fresh cut fries or sweet potato fries. My only complaint is they are closed more often than they are open.

I still can't find a Mexican like the ones the former T-P had, but I've been on a quest to find the best Mexican burgers in the area. Although they aren't anything like the T-P's, the former Lou's Dairy Creme in Mohawk and Voss are tied for first place, while Kenickie's in Little Falls is in second place. Everything else I've tried pales in comparison so far. If anyone has a Mexican like the former T-P, I will be in heaven again. I really miss that place.

I hate to say it, but I went to Boomer's and was disappointed, then went back several times to make sure and they always seemed to charge too much for lackluster food.:-(

If your looking for an exact replica of the TP Drive-In Mexican Hot, try Crossway's Tavern in Ilion. Crossways's has re-opened their dining room after many years and the food is fantastic. They do have the TP Mexicans, in fact they have Nancy who used to be at the TP working there and she brought the recipe. They also have the hero's that used to be at the Black and White in the gorge. They make an excellent hot roast beef sandwich. Jimmy Crossway has been really trying to clean the place up and change the cliental. The dining room entrance is seperate from the bar.

What about Frank and Burgy's? I heard they are expensive and not that big of a deal for a grill joint.

I get to Frank and Burgy's a couple times a weeks great Burger great Fries everthing is cooked fresh nothing frozen. Alot of people seem to like there Mexican sauce made by Alan. Run by a couple great guy's Alan and John. Give it a try you won't be disapointed.
